The Tribute:
This day I stand with tears in my
eyes, presenting a salute as I say my goodbyes. Fond memories of
you so gallantly appear, in all that you gave, you showed no
fear. I was your partner in whom you placed your trust, your
devotion to man was always loyal and just.
The badge of honor you wore upon
your breast, you most deserved, in giving your best. Your service
to justice, through peril and strife, you gave unselfishly to
protect human life. Laid upon your casket are the stars and
stripes, I hear in the distance the sound of bagpipes.
Twenty-one guns are raised to the
sky, as I say this day my final goodbyes. One day I pray we will
meet again, and that Heaven holds a place for these special dogs
and men.
